    Anansi's Gold is a non-fiction masterpiece that tells the story of Ghanaian con artist John Ackah Blay-Miezah, who swindled millions of dollars from thousands of believers. After Ghana gained independence in 1957, a CIA-funded military junta falsely accused Nkrumah of hiding Ghana's gold overseas. Blay-Miezah and his accomplices deceived Philadelphia lawyers, London financiers, and Seoul businessmen, earning him the title of one of the most fascinating and lucrative scams in modern history. Yepoka Yeebo follows Blay-Miezah's trail and uncovers the truth about Ghana's missing wealth, revealing how history writes itself into being through one lie at a time.
